Juicio Final (1965)
Juicio Final (1965) (Spanish for "Final Judgement" 1965) was a professional wrestling supercard show, scripted and produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), which took place on December 3, 1955, in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The show served as the year-end finale for CMLL before Arena México, CMLL's main venue, closed down for the winter for renovations and to host Circo Atayde . The shows replaced the regular Super Viernes ("Super Friday") shows held by CMLL since the mid-1930s.

The top two matches for the show were both contested under Lucha de Apuestas, or "bet match" rules, where all competitors in the match "bet" either their mask or their hair in case they are not masked. In the headline match two of EMLL's headliner wrestlers faced off as Karloff Lagarde defeated Cavernario Galindo, which meant that Galindo was shaved bald afterwards as a result of his "bet". In the semi-main event lucha film star Huracán Ramírez successfully defended his mask as he pinned The Scorpió to win the match, forcing The Scorpió to unmask and state his name, Roberto Grimaldo.
